There ¤is a way, a ¤nar¤row way,
That ¤leads to life a¤¤bove–
A ¤way of peace and ¤ho¤li¤ness,
Of ¤pu¤ri¤ty and ¤love.

Chorus:
My ¤yearn¤ing soul de¤¤sires to find
This ¤hid¤den path of ¤bliss;
Lord, ¤hear my prayer, and ¤lead me in
The ¤way of ho¤li¤¤ness.

To ¤find this way, this ¤liv¤ing way,
We ¤must fore¤go our ¤sin:
God ¤has de¤clared the ¤pure in heart
A¤¤lone can en¤ter ¤in.

There ¤is a way, a ¤hum¤ble way,
A ¤way of truth and ¤grace–
The ¤high¤way of God’s ¤right¤eous¤ness,
Where ¤self can have no ¤place.

There ¤is a way, a ¤per¤fect way;
His ¤cho¤sen walk there¤¤in;
And ¤they who share His ¤suf¤fering now
E¤¤ter¤nal glo¤ry ¤win.

There ¤is a way, a ¤low¤ly way
Where¤¤in His saints a¤¤bide
And ¤res¤ur¤rec¤tion ¤life re¤ceive,
As ¤self is cru¤ci¤¤fied.

There ¤is a way a ¤sa¤cred way,
A ¤deep and hid¤den ¤rest,
Where ¤Je¤sus bids His ¤wea¤ry ones
To ¤lean up¤on His ¤breast.

My ¤soul de¤sires this ¤cho¤sen way
His ¤wor¤thy saints have ¤trod,
Where ¤self must die and ¤all my life
Is ¤hid with Christ in ¤God.
